Question
The engineer needs to back up sensitive data located on VMware vSphere encrypted VMs. The company policy prioritizes data security over anything else. In the backup infrastructure, the engineer has configured:
- One physical proxy configured on the DirectSAN Access transport mode,
for fast data transfer speed and less load on the production network
- Two physical proxies in NBDSSL Encryption has been enabled on the
backup job Which action will allow the VM data to remain encrypted during the entire backup process?
Options
- AConfigure Global Network Traffic Rules to encrypt the backup traffic.
- BConfigure the job to use the proxies with the NBDSSL transport mode.
- CConfigure the job to use the proxy with the DirectSAN Access transport mode.

Explanation
To ensure that the VM data remains encrypted throughout the backup process, the job should be configured to use the proxies with the NBDSSL (Network Block Device SSL) transport mode. This mode encrypts data transferred over the network, adhering to the company policy that prioritizes data security. While DirectSAN Access is fast, it does not provide encryption of in-flight data.
